Musky, funky nose. Orange hues by candlelight in the glass. Warm, pleasing tannins. Fig, tar, flint. A nice intro to this maker.

Hot vintage, I'm told. I can detect it after say 60 in the glass, but my first impression was purely wow. Viciously good with steak

Very complex wine with some herbal notes. Controversial! Opened and drank. Needs 20 minutes in glass
